You'll have the entire condo to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

The Upper Deck Retreat- Holiday Cozy in Crystal Beach!

With views of the water and sand at your door step - this is the perfect get-away for you and your family! Crystal Beach is Ontario's hidden gem with beaches that rival the Caribbean, endless biking & hiking trails, great parks, quaint eateries and ice cream shops.
Our property is a large 3 bedroom condo with everything you need to unwind - large sun deck, BBQ, games, fully stocked kitchen, laundry, clean open space for entertaining & enjoying each others company. Our desire is that when you leave "the Beach" all you'll be thinking about is the next time you'll return!

The Niagara Region is bursting with things to do:
The Butterfly Conservatory is amazing to see!
Maid of the Mist is awesome!
If you like wineries, this is wine country and we would suggest a few.
Gretzky’s is something else as they have a winery, newly opened beer garden (June 2019), and a distillery...plus for hockey fans, the memorabilia is like a museum.
Two Sisters represents true luxury!
If you like theater, Shaw Festival in Niagara-On-The-Lake (which is a beautiful quaint town all on its own) has a very robust line up throughout the summer months.
Niagara-on-the-Lake is also known for it’s old Vintage hotels with terrific spas. Some even host High Tea on Sundays.

There is lots to do....but if you choose to relax with your feet in the sand the entire time you are here...that would be an excellent choice too!! Whatever you decide - ENJOY!

We loved the quiet little town this home was situated in. The home was perfect for our family. All three beds were king size and were so comfy! Everything was very clean. It was such a better accommodation than anything near the falls! We will book here again if it’s available!!!

Great hidden gem

We had a wonderful stay. It was a quieter calmer place to unwind after spending days in Niagara Falls and Niagara on the Lake, we enjoyed the food trucks and music at the park and beautiful Lake Erie sunsets. We easily slept 4 adults and 3 kids. We’d stay here when traveling that way again for sure!

Highly recommend for beach getaway!

Zero complaints about this property. Space was very clean, great for family and friends to stop by. And truly can’t beat the location which is directly across from the beach; no issues walking back and forth from the beach as needed. Beach passes were included which was an amazing bonus for the few days we were there. Will absolutely stay again!

Great location

Our stay in Crystal Beach was pleasant. The location directly across from the beach was fantastic. The inclusion of the beach passes was greatly appreciated. Short drive to Niagara and Old Fort Erie. Ceiling fans would have helped…that was our only concern as it got very warm with closed bedroom doors at night.

Lovely, airy and bright

So open, roomy and clean and perfect set up. So close to the beach. Everything was as advertised. We needed something repaired the first day and it was taken care of immediately. Lovely stay. Only request would be a gas or propane BBQ.

Just what you need.

We had a blast for this beach trip. House was as described, clean, bright & the baking smell from downstairs was delightful every morning. You can see the beach from the windows, the area is great with all of the restaurants. Book while you can.

Perfect property and location

This apartment had everything we needsy to enjoy the lake. It's directly across the street from Bay Beach and comes with beach passes, umbrellas, chairs, sand toys and towels. Also, there's a great deck with fire pit, grill, and comfy seating. Beds were very comfortable and it was fantastic to get three King beds. Also, the kitchen was well equipped with coffee maker/coffee, dishwasher, equipment needed to make a real dinner. Everything was very clean and good quality. Lots of restaurants within walking distance. We can't wait to stay here again.

Nice place and location

Very nice spot, plenty of room and well laid out. Nice back deck, super close to the beach (which is a nice sandy and large beach) was very convenient, and the town / street with restaurants, park was excellent. Communication and instructions for arrival etc all good. Highly recommend we had a great time there
